"When implemented effectively, competency-based education (CBE) promotes high levels of learning for every student. In Unpacking the Competency-Based Classroom, authors Jonathan G. Vander Els and Brian M. Stack provide educators with a framework for implementing competency-based education at the classroom and school levels. The authors assert that changing to a competency-based system is a whole-scale philosophical shift and that professional learning community (PLC) practices and structures support and guide this transition. The book unpacks how to make the shift to a competency-based system by reevaluating and revamping traditional policies, structures, and procedures, including assessment and instruction practices. By reading Unpacking the Competency-Based Classroom, educators discover how to create learning environments that promote continuous improvement and student engagement"-- Competency-based education.
